FOREWORD 

In  presenting  this  little  collection  of 
Biographical  Notes,  we  have  in  mind  the 
natural  curiosity  of  the  picture  collector  to 
know  who  the  man  is  who  painted  the 
picture,  and  what  he  has  done  in  the  past 
that  may  indicate  his  position  in  the  future. 

The  list  does  not  pretend  to  include  all 
the  American  artists  whom  we  believe  to 
be  worth  while.  The  fifty  this  booklet 
contains,  however,  carefully  selected  from 
those  whose  pictures  are  to  be  found  here, 
are  those  for  whose  reputation  an  expe- 
rience of  over  twenty  years  enables  us  to 
vouch  with  some  degree  of  certainty. 

We  extend  our  thanks  to  the  museums 
and  private  collectors  who  have  permitted 
us  to  reproduce  their  canvases,  and  to  the 
American  Art  Annual,  to  the  various  mu- 
seum catalogues,  and  to  the  artists  them- 
selves who  read  and  corrected  the  proof, 
for  the  material  here  presented. 

Correspondence  relating  to  the  work  of 
any  of  the  men  included  in  this  booklet  is 
cordially  invited. 

WILLIAM  MACBETH.

GEORGE  FULLER 
1822-1884 

Born  on  farm  in  Deerfield,  Mass.,  January  1  7, 
1822.  Died,  Brookline,  Mass.,  March  21,  1884. 
First  attempt  at  painting  inspired  by  the  portraits 
by  his  half-brother,  and  the  work  of  his  maternal 
uncle.  Worked  in  a  shoe  store  in  Boston,  but  gave 
up  business  and  returned  to  Deerfield  to  paint. 
In  1837  joined  an  expedition  to  make  surveys  for 
railroad  in  Illinois.  Stayed  there  two  years,  sketch- 
ing from  nature  at  every  opportunity.  Upon  return 
from  the  West,  went  to  Boston  and  received  instruc- 
tion at  the  Boston  Art  Association.  He  also  paint- 
ed portraits  with  his  half-brother  in  a  number  of 
small  country  towns,  charging  about  fifteen  dollars 
a  likeness.  For  twelve  years  resided  in  New  York, 
and  in  1 860  visited  the  important  art  centres  of 
Europe.  Returned  to  America  after  absence  of 
nearly  a  year  and  settled  down  on  the  farm.  In 
spare  time  painted  a  number  of  figures  and  land- 
scapes, and  his  best  work  is  of  this  period.  At  one 
time  was  vice-president  of  the  St.  Botolph  Club  in 
Boston,  and  in  1857  was  elected  an  Associate  of 
the  National  Academy.

WILLIAM  MORRIS  HUNT 
1824-1879 

Born  Brattleboro,  Vermont,  March  31,  1824; 
died  Weatherfield,  Vermont,  1879.  Entered  the 
Dusseldorf  Academy  in  1  846  to  study  sculpture, 
but  gave  this  up  shortly  afterwards  when  he  saw 
some  paintings  by  Couture  which  decided  him  to 
be  a  painter  instead.  Studied  under  Couture  in 
Paris,  and  later  went  to  Holland  to  study  and  copy 
the  old  masters,  especially  Rembrandt.  After  his 
return  to  America  lived  in  Newport,  R.  I.,  and 
Brattleboro,  Vt.  In  1 862  opened  a  studio  in 
Boston  where  he  painted  many  portraits  and  figure 
compositions.  Best  known  portrait  that  of  Chief 
Justice  Shaw,  now  in  Court  House  of  Salem, 
Mass.  Went  to  Florida  for  his  health  about  1872 
and  there  took  up  landscape  painting  for  the  first 
time.  In  1875  went  to  Mexico,  and  some  fine 
landscapes  and  figures  resulted  from  this  trip.  In 
1878  he  visited  Niagara  and  painted  his  famous 
picture  of  the  Falls,  which  sold  for  ten  thousand 
dollars  a  short  time  after  his  death.  In  the  same 
year  received  commission  for  two  large  mural 
paintings  setting  forth  the  story  of  Columbus,  to 
decorate  the  Capitol  at  Albany.

old,  his  grandfather,  who  was  a  miniature  painter, 
gave  him  his  first  lessons  in  art.  After  receiving  a 
classic  and  legal  education,  he  went  abroad  to 
study  art,  and  there  came  under  the  influence  of 
Couture.  Spent  most  of  his  time  studying  the  old 
masters  in  the  various  museums.  Returned  to 
America  to  take  up  law,  but  abandoned  it  to  study 
painting  under  William  Morris  Hunt.  At  first  he 
painted  landscapes,  figures  and  still  life,  and  later 
took  up  decorative  work.  In  1876  received  com-

ALEXANDER  H.  WYANT 
1836-1892 

Bom,  Defiance,  Ohio,  1836.  Exhibited  great 
talent  for  drawing  as  a  boy.  In  the  early  fifties,  re- 
moved to  Cincinnati,  where  he  saw  his  first  paint- 
ings. When  about  twenty  years  old,  went  to  New 
York  and  showed  sketches  to  George  Inness,  who 
encouraged  him  to  continue.  Went  to  Carlsruhe 
and  studied  under  Hans  Gude,  to  whom  can  be 
traced  his  emphasis  of  form  and  construction,  and 
dignity  of  composition.  Subsequently  studied  in 
London,  returning  to  New  York  about  1865. 
Went  west  with  government  exploring  expedition, 
privations  and  accidents  of  which  resulted  in  par- 
tial paralysis,  so  that,  after  1  869,  he  was  compelled 
to  paint  with  his  left  hand.  Painted  for  many  years 
in  Keene  Valley,  Adirondacks,  and  later  in  Ark- 
ville,  in  the  Catskill  Mountains,  where  most  of  his 
best  work  was  done.  He  was  a  semi-invalid  all 
the  latter  part  of  his  life,  and  died  in  New  York 
in  1892. 

First  exhibited  in  the  National  Academy,  New 
York,  in  1  865.  Elected  an  Associate  of  the  Acad- 
emy in  1 868,  Academician,  1 869,  and  was  one 
of  the  founders  of  the  American  Society  of  Paint- 
ers in  Water  Colors.  He  is  represented  in  most 
of  the  important  museums  and  private  collections 
throughout  the  country.
